"My fight will continue," says BRS leader Krishank from jail

HYDERABAD: BRS leader Krishank Manne announced that his fight for justice and truth would continue despite his arrest and imprisonment.

In a hand-written letter in English released to the media on Monday, Krishank wrote, "My fight shall continue." He was arrested on May 1 on charges of forging a letter from Osmania University Hostel and was currently lodged in Chanchalguda Central Prison. He was also taken into police custody for one day for interrogation.

In his letter, Krishank maintained that he was innocent, asserting, "I reiterate that I posted the original circular. If it is proven that I have forged it, I am ready to face severe punishment. But if it is proven that CM Revanth Garu posted a forged circular and misled the people of Telangana State, then he must step down as Chief Minister for violating the oath of office."

Krishank expressed gratitude to those who supported him during this challenging time. He stated, "I thank all BRS leaders with the utmost gratitude for speaking out against my arrest and the fabricated charges. It is overwhelming to have the immense support of BRS social media warriors, which has kept me strong during these tough days. I must thank all the advocates defending my sincerity, and especially the journalists who have been covering this story."

Though it is unclear when he wrote the letter, he signed it with "Jai Telangana, Krishank, UT 1882, Chanchalguda Jail."
